I can definitely relate to the boring treadmill workouts gms. Same situation for me all week. If only I could find an area with some packed snow that doesn't come up past my knees...and some warmer temps.

[Mr. Cleetus]

you're doing some pretty solid swimming sets!

[JohnV]

The frigid temps up here on the North Coast have kept me inside on the treadmill, too. But, it's nice to be able to run, and in a couple months we'll all be trotting in the Spring air!
